Demer’s Ambulance Service
Demers Ambulance, a Canadian ambulance manufacturer, requested our assistance in
generating awareness at large tradeshow since their brand is virtually unknown in the U.S. fire market. We also needed to validate that their product would be accepted in the U.S. market. We utilized an online strategy, social media postings, focus group and blogger booth
appearances to generate awareness. The results included, increased web traffic, Key Opinion Leader buy-‐in and support, the most booth traffic than in all their previous years combined of exhibiting; and, obtaining the most qualified leads ever.
The core of the plan included a private dinner of KOL's. After wining and dining, we facilitated a focus group of the 10 KOL’s. Our objective was to get our client feedback on their product and

We have been involved with a client for more than two years assisting them with a thought leadership program that would pivot to product marketing once they unveiled a new product to the market. The client was concerned that since dropping to a second place leader in the industry, there would be little brand preference to a new product rollout.
Our objective was to change the brand perception of their potential customer base prior to the product rollout. The brand campaign included:
1. A brand survey to benchmark their status 2. VIP factory tours
3. Content marketing using webcasts and podcasts with major publications 4. Advertising campaign
5. Enlisting the partnership of KOL’s and bloggers to generate awareness 6. Social media: using both private and public groups on LinkedIn
7. Social media postings on Facebook
8. Creating private events at industry conferences and tradeshows
The client has already made hundreds of pre-‐sales prior to the product rollout. The product was recently launched in April of this year at a major industry tradeshow. Sales continue to soar.
